  • LODGING SUGGESTIONS: Downtown Is 3.5 Miles/Approximately 10 Minutes Away from Our Central Office Location
    LODGING SUGGESTIONS: Downtown is 3.5 miles/approximately 10 minutes away from our Central Office location. Hilliard-Rome Road & I70 is 6.5 miles/approximately 10-15 minutes away. The downtown hotels are very nice, but, they can be slightly pricier than other areas. Most of them do offer government rates, however. Both areas offer plenty of restaurants but there is more shopping in the Hilliard-Rome Road & I-70 area. The downtown area hotels that are highlighted are near the Convention Center and Arena District. This area is recommended as there are more restaurant options than in other parts of downtown. DOWNTOWN HOTELS: Arena District Hyatt Regency Holiday Inn Columbus Downtown Capitol 350 North High Street Square Columbus, OH 43215 175 East Town Street 614-463-1234 Columbus, OH 43215 614-221-3281 Courtyard by Marriott Columbus - Downtown 35 West Spring Street The Lofts Hotel Columbus, OH 43215 55 East Nationwide Boulevard 614-228-3200 x190 Columbus, OH 43215 614-461-2658 Crowne Plaza Hotel Columbus Downtown 33 East Nationwide Boulevard Red Roof Inn Columbus Downtown - Columbus, OH 43215 Convention Center 614-461-2667 111 East Nationwide Boulevard Columbus, OH 43215 Double Tree Guest Suites - Columbus 614-224-6539 50 South Front Street Columbus, OH 43215 Renaissance Columbus Downtown Hotel 614-228-4600 50 North Third Street Columbus, OH 43215 Drury Inn & Suites Convention Center 614-228-5050 88 East Nationwide Boulevard Columbus, OH 43215 Residence Inn by Marriott Columbus Downtown 614-221-7008 36 East Gay Street Columbus, OH 43215 Hampton

The Village has always attracted rebels, radicals, and creative types, from earnest 18th- century revolutionary Thomas Paine, to early-20th-century radicals such as John Reed and Mabel Dodge, to the Stonewall rioters who gave birth to the gay liberation movement in 1969.

Much of Village life cen- ters around Washington Square Park, the site of hippie rallies and counterculture demonstrations, and the former stomping ground of Henry James and Edith Wharton. Many other American writers have at some time made their homes in the Village. As early as the 19th century, it was New York’s literary hub and a hot spot for salons and other intellectual gatherings. Both the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art came into being here, albeit some 60 years apart.
